You will be fully responsible for keeping every workstream moving to standard - setting priorities with stakeholders, translating them into clear technical tasks, driving delivery across product, engineering, design, data, and marketing, and taking direct ownership of projects that have no dedicated owner. This is a high-accountability role suited for someone who treats "almost done" as not done. We hold a high bar: clear tickets, honest timelines, and work shipped to standard.
